Here are some hints:  Think of a more recent group, say based out of England.  He's married to Gwyneth Paltrow.   ;D

Yeah I was definitely thinking Coldplay.

Chris, you beat me to that. I was trying to come up with something along those lines.

Nice Kalen!  Great photo too.  By the way...if there is anyone who's earned the right to wear denim on the course...or a yellow shirt for that matter...it's Tom.

Nancy, on the other hand...



But hey, look at little Bandon hanging out on her three-wood.  She has good taste in head covers (which means I have good taste in head covers...)

Yup. You heard right. I invite the SOB out here to see the course and play a casual match and he says its only fair if we switch clubs. Then he DEMANDS strokes. He must have given himself the moniker ' Golf's Most Beloved Figure'.

If you build in the cheapest, remotest sites, the government gets very little money out of your work.

My first thought was "Ladies love hickory shafts" but that didn't sound appropriate, so unfortunately, I came up with a couple of others:

1.  "I can't believe that I finally get to meet Hamilton Hearst today!!!"
2.  Headline:  "Dale Earnhart out, Tom Doak in as new Wrangler Man."
3.  "Those guys on GCA are such dorks!!!"
4.  "Where's a dozer, I gotta shape something!!!!"

I am done now.

This thread brings absolute joy to me. Hard to believe it was 13 1/2 months ago. Look at that man's face. It was a special day.

The last few have been very funny.  Thanks for those.

Adam...Of course my Cheryl took this picture.  There are a few other good ones, but this is my favorite.
